I was at a boat show and i saw a Kite that hooks up to your rope handle and you get pulled behind the boat. If anyone knows the website to find this I would appreciate it.

wakekite.com dude!...the vids look like it would be fun with that insane hang time... but it will run you $1500 smackeroonees! I would demo one before droppin your loot

Uhhh....this looks totally sick! My knees are blown for regular wakeboarding; bout time something new came out to give me a fresh shot at catching air, without the knee-bending consequenses. I saw a video on youtube (search wakekite) and it looks unreal. Looks tough on the arms, but I would imagine you get used to that like anything new. Can't wait. Also, I saw that Wiley's is dealing this - must be the ••••••• they don't deal crap.

prices are always higher initially... or most of the time anyway... like CDs and DVD players and stuff. wait a while to see if the price goes down... also wait to see if the system gets abused like the wego kite tube... lets pray it doesnt, both for the sake of lives and this new product/ inovation

the wakekite looks like cheating.
